Compliance Filing Services
Initial Return
An Initial Return is a mandatory filing required within 60 days of incorporating your business in Ontario. It confirms your corporation’s registered address, directors, and officers with the government, ensuring your company is compliant from day one.
Annual Return
An Annual Return keeps your corporation’s information up to date with the government each year. It confirms key details like your corporate address and directors, ensuring your business stays active and in good standing.
Federal ISC Compliance Filing
Federal corporations must file an ISC (Information on the Structure of the Corporation) Compliance Filing to maintain accurate corporate records with Corporations Canada. This filing confirms details about your registered office, directors, and more.
Quebec Ultimate Beneficiary Filing
Quebec corporations are required to disclose their ultimate beneficiaries to the provincial registry to promote transparency and combat financial crime. This filing identifies individuals who directly or indirectly control the corporation.
Articles of Amendment
Articles of Amendment allow you to officially update your corporation’s key details, such as its name, share structure, or corporate rules. Filing these changes with the government keeps your corporation’s records accurate and compliant.
File GST Return
Filing your GST return ensures your business properly reports and remits collected taxes to the Canada Revenue Agency. Accurate and timely filings help you avoid penalties and keep your business in good standing. Let us handle your GST return efficiently so you can focus on running your business.
